Penn State and Pitt Elevens Straggle to O?O Tie?Penn Crushes Cornell by 28 to 0
Panthers Outplay Opponents,
But Pass Up Several Chances
Unbeaten Teams Play Sensational Game in Driz?
zling Kain; Davies Proves Star Until Knocked
Unconscious Near End of the First Half
By Ray McCarthy
PITTSBURGH, Nov. 25.?Twenty-two mud-caked football warriors
representing the University of Pittsburgh and Pennsylvania State College,
battled fiercely for an hour to a draw on Forbes Field this afternoon.
When the fina'l whistle blew the two teams were deadlocked in iron-bound
grips in mid-field and, in all of the time they had struggled up and down
the field, neither side was able to put over a score. The 0 to 0 tie was just
about what the score should have been, so evenly did the two elevens play.
As a tie came resulted everybody
went away well satisfied, for it would
have been unfair to either side to
have lost out on this rain-soaked
gridiron to-day on which the mud was
several inches deep and which was
?apery as a ballroom floor. A
drizzling rain fell throughout the
contest. Nevertheless everybody was
i only disappointed that two great
teams such as these are didn't have a
irood day to :'._-'a.t it out. Any number
of things then could have resulted and
probably would have, judging from
what was shown in this issue.
In the first place the handling of
the ball by the players of both sid -
was nothing shirt of remarkable un?
der the condition Oi ly a d- a n
'umbles occurred during the entire
Pitl making five of these and
seven. Also the fine hard ru n -
. : .- of both back fields was s'a.
and wonderfully well done. In this
respect Tommy Davi a the lithe Pitt
back, -.vas , class of 1 em all.
Davies Knocked Unconscious
The way l)avie^ cut in off tackle on
the dead ran without shifting his
stride and the manner in which he
eluded tacklers in the open gave the
..?ors one feature at least to talk
ahout. Towards the close of the sec?
ond pernd Davies was tackled so vio
ii ntly he lost his senses and had to
??? removed from tl ?? ci ntest. He
l i'l roc-over until the struggle was
. iay over. So that after his with?
drawal I';:,- bu gh was severely handi
;?; cd and in the second half was
ayed.
le Charlie Way, who was expect
to furnish all. of the excitement in
ompany with Davies, never had a real

pted to execute his famous side

variably alighted on the flat of his

Di
ng of both teams, as was
a. rd and sui c and t his,
1 with the ' sceedi igly heavy gi -
ng, gave the runner very little chance
o se. Another fea! ure of the
fair was the punting of Davies and
lyers for Pittsburgh and Hess and
Killinger for ? t?te.
All things considered, the players de
, ?\ ?. greal credit for their exhibition.
Such backing up of a lino as Stein, the
Pittsburgh captain, and Griffiths, of
Penn State, showed on this watery Held
-.va.i astonishing,
,, Edge ISelonp-s to Pitt
As far as the edge is concerned it
. ?bably belongs to Pittsburgh. it
.ado twelve first downs to State's
'i he Panthers gained 171 yards
,, th< ir opponi nt'a 152, and in the
tter of pu?rting the locals also had
i slight advi n'a .a.
In the ? ? ? ? i quarter Pittsburgh had
the hall en State's 4-yard line on the
? ? | down and apparently was on
... way to a touchdown when Captain
. . in made a. poor pass to Davies, who
..,-,,? the ball on his 12-yard line.
From there the Blue and Gold rushed
the leather to the 5-yard line and then
Davies dropped hark to his 11-yard
, and attempted a goal from place?
ment, which he missed by inches.
It. seemed to us the Pitt kicker made
a mistake here in not dropping further
huck from the scrimmagi line. As it
"as he was within six yards of the
ine and had to hurry his kick some
,vhat.
Early in the first quarter Penn State
had tin* ball on Pitt's 12-yard line when
a l'uni1..la by Haines enabled Pittsburgh
o regain posse ? n of the leather and
to punt out of danger. In the final
period, with only a few minutes of
play left, rein State had the ball on
Pitt's !'! yard line, third down and lit
' Ic X.-ss than a yi rd t o go.
We thought Killinger would try for
a field goal at this point, a? he was al?
most directly in front of the goal
Posts, but instead he called upon Way
to turn the left end. Way slogged his

met aim us he reared the. end and
ed him for a 5-yard l??*is. It was
then that : ite said good-by to vic

started a run on the lirsl play, and

on the 20-yard line. Way shot around

brought the bail to the 10-yard line,
where Davies tried for a goal and
missed.
Pitt Misses Opportunity

punts, the Panthers proceeded to march
to the St-.-" i ?a!, with Davies and An?
derson leading the way Then came
Stein's had pass, and another oppor?
tunity wa - muddled.
In the third period State began a
hard rushing offense which carried
them to the 20-yard line, but Pitt held,
and State lost the ball by having a
pass intercepted. The remainder of
| the period consisted mostly of a punt
! inpc duel.
In the final period Killinger took a

and returned the ball to the 35-yard
'? limn Way made six yards on end an,1

Special Correspond 'noe of The Tr(b?mi
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 25.?The Uni?
versity of Pennsylvania redeemed a
disappointing season this afternoon
when, in a drizzling rain, the Red and
Blue completely crushed a heavier
Cornell team by the score of 28 to 0.
From the time that Penn flashed an un?
expected forward pass in the first
period on the first down, that let Joe
Straus, the bulky Quaker fullback, dash
forty-eight yards to a touchdown, the
Red and Blue held the Ithacan3 in the
palm of their hands.
Though Cornell flashed a better run?
ning game all through the contest this
was more than offset by the terrific
tackling of the Quakers, the wonderful
running back of Cornell punts by little
139-pound Rex Wray, the masterly kick?
ing exhibition of Whitehill and the
timely use of the forward pass. The
usual capacity crowd of thirty thousand
spectators crowded Franklin Field.
The Penn team, which had previously
been beaten four times, came through
with a fine display of courage, spirit
and football, and once in the lead never
had its advantage seriously threatened.
In fact, the Red and Blue power in
I creased as the game progressed, and
j after scoring a third touchdown in the
S final period, pounded out a fourth with
; a team composed almost entirely oi.
[ substitutes by a straight drive down
i the field for fifty vards.
Five Passes Successful
The statistics of the game make !
Penn's victory rather a remarkable
feat, for Cornell had a running game |
that produced 17<5 yards from scrim?
mage, against. 170 for the Penn team. !
However, the Ithacans were able to !
gain only in the middle zone of play. ;
Penn -tried ten forward passes, live of
which were successful for a total dis- !
tance of eighty-eight yards, the other
five being grounded. Against this Cor?
nell failed to make a successful pass
in three tries, Penn intercepting two,
Penn had ten first downs from scrim?
mage, against six for Cornel!.
In the kicking and running back of
punts Penn showed superiority that
spelled victory. Whitehill booted a wet,
slippery ball with poor passing sixteen
times for an average of forty-one
yards, while Cornell only averaged
twenty-nine yards. Rex Wray never
muffed one of the eleven Cornell punts,
ard on the slippery field dodged back a
total of 159 yards.
Penn earned its two touchdowns in
the first half through timely and per?
sistent use of the forward pass. In
the first few minutes of play Cornell
gained considerable ground with a fair
running game in which a tandem for?
mation masked the plunges and dashes
of the fleet Ithachan backs. P.ut dur
? ing that time Whitehill's splendid
: punting and Wray's ability to run back
! kicks offset the Cornell attack.
Straus Makes Touchdown
Finally Wray dashed to midfield with
a punt. On the first play from a
; straight formation Wray surprised the
ithacans by shooting a forward pass
; down to the left side of the field. oJe
? Straus caught the ball on the dead run
; and with Miller interfering dashed
t down towards the Cornell goal. Five
! yarda from the goal Ka*w intercepted
him but Miller with a hard drive took
? him off his feet and let Straus through
, for the touchdown.
Thereafter in the first, period th?
play remained between the 20-yar<
I lines, the Ithacans losing their onlj
chance to get deep into Penn territorj
when Ward broke through and blockec
a kick at midfield, Thomas recoverinf
the ball.
Shortly after the start of the sec
; ond period Ward recovered a fumbli
and Whitehill tried a goal from place
ment, the ball just misisng the cross
bar. Cornel! sturdily held for downs 01
its 30-yard line a short time later, bu
when Carey tried to get off a pun
Ward again dashed through an?
blocked the ball, Thomas for the sec
I ond time falling on it.
.After a few short gains, Whitehi!
